Meat derived from pasture feeding, is associated with a high level of antioxidants. Antioxidants are incorporated within cell membranes and protect tissues against oxidation from reactive oxygen species. This maintains the overall quality of meat and secondary products. This paper reviews the implications of incorporating natural antioxidants into fresh beef, focusing oil the benefits of feeding cattle good quality pasture. Pasture samples typically have higher levels of alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotene, ascorbic acid and glutathione than feedlot samples. These compounds retard lipid and protein oxidation in fresh and stored meat, and preserve the color and odor quality of beef. The significance of antioxidant enzymes is variable, because their behavior depends oil individual redox status before slaughter. Understanding total antioxidant activity requires information oil antioxidant and pro-oxidant status. With all abundance of pasture, Argentina has a natural advantage in producing meat with a high antioxidant value. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
